MANILA — The House prosecution panel challenged Tuesday Supreme Court (SC) Chief Justice Renato Corona to disclose his statements of assets, liabilities, and net worth (SALN) after receiving documents indicating his purchase of a high-end condominium unit in Taguig City.
Corona and his wife Cristina purchased a 303.5-square-meter condominium unit from the Megaworld Corporation on December 16, 2009, said House justice committee chairman Niel Tupas Jr., also the prosecution panel head, citing documents the panel received.
Also included in the condominium purchase were three parking slots measuring 12.5 square meters each.
The unit purchased is situated in the 38th floor of Bellagio Tower 1 located at the Fort Bonifacio in Taguig City.
The Condominium Certificate of Title was then transferred just five weeks after the P14.5-million unit was purchased.
Corona was an associate justice before he was appointed by former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo as Chief Justice in May 2010.
“We are challenging the Chief Justice to disclose to the public his Statements of Assets and Liabilities. There are still many other documents in the possession of the panel showing Corona’s properties,” Tupas said.
The prosecution team has accused Corona of culpable violation of the Constitution and betrayal of public trust for his failure to disclose to the public his SALN.
This is one of the eight articles contained in the impeachment complaint signed by 188 members of the House of Representatives.
Court Administrator and SC spokesperson Midas Marquez earlier said an appropriate motion should be filed before the SC questioning a September 1992 en banc resolution.
The en banc resolution issued during the term of Chief Justice Andres Narvasa disallows the disclosure of the SALN of the members of the judiciary.
In Malacañang, President Benigno Aquino III instructed his Cabinet and Liberal partymates to distance themselves from the Senate, which will act as impeachment court as the trial against Chief Justice Renato Corona starts on January 16.
Budget Secretary Florencio Abad said the President made the instruction to avoid accusations that the executive is trying to intervene in the impeachment process against Corona.
“We respect the separation of branches here. The President has given us instruction to distance ourselves especially from the Senate because they are going to act as a trial court,” Abad said.
Abad said there were no efforts coming from the executive or the partymates of Aquino in the Liberal Party to influence the senators, two weeks before the impeachment trial starts.
Presidential spokesperson Edwin Lacierda echoed Abad’s statement, saying the President would want to allay accusations that the executive branch is “encroaching all the branches of government.”
The Budget chief, meanwhile, assured that the Aquino administration will cooperate with the prosecutors of Corona’s case by providing information that will be needed in the trial.
Malacañang will also leave it to the Senate whether it will agree to conduct preliminary hearings before the impeachment trial.
Meantime, a fifth petition to stop the impeachment trial of Corona was filed before the Supreme Court Tuesday by Alan Paguia (lawyer of former President Joseph Estrada) and former lawmaker Homobono Adaza.
The two accused the House of Representatives of grave abuse of discretion amounting to lack of jurisdiction by accepting the articles of impeachment against Corona before it was verified.
“Under the third Paragraph of Section 3, Rule 7 of the Rules, an unsigned pleading produces no legal effect,” the 23-page petition read.
Similar petitions were earlier filed by lawyer Vladimir Cabigao, tax informer Danilo Lihaylihay, Oliver Lozano, and former Integrated Bar of the Philippines president Vicente Millora.
Lacierda said the Palace will leave it to the SC to decide on the petition but they also expect the High Court to let the impeachment process in the Senate prosper.
“We will be more than happy if the SC issued a statement that this is already a political question and now subject to the discretion of the representatives of the people,” he said.
Senators, acting as judges on the complaint, will resume their legislative duties after a month-long holiday break on January 16 but actual trial may begin later if Corona’s request for pre-trial will be granted.
A pre-trial will help expedite the proceedings since the process will determine how many witnesses will be summoned and what documents will be presented by both the prosecution and defense panels.
Justices will be on a full-court session on January 17, where they are expected to rule on the petitions seeking to stop the impeachment trial. (Kathrina Alvarez/Jill Beltran/ Virgil Lopez/Sunnex)

CITY OF SAN FERNANDO – The Provincial Government said the newly rehabilitated Don Andres Luciano Memorial Hospital (DALMH) (formerly known as Balitucan District Hospital) in Magalang town will open to the public on Monday.
Governor Lilia Pineda said at least P35 million was spent for the construction of the new building. The budget was part of the some P700 million released by the Capitol in 2011 for various projects on health, education, livelihood and infrastructure, among others.
The 50-bed district hospital mostly serves residents from nearby Angeles City, Arayat and Mabalacat towns.
The newly completed building also houses the wards, emergency room, laboratory, pharmacy, dental offices, supply room, doctor’s quarters and staff offices.
Pineda said the upgrading and rehabilitation of several district hospitals in the province including the DALMH aims to provide efficient and effective health services for the underprivileged Kapampangans.
Earlier, the governor met with George Samson, president and CEO of the Detroit, Michigan-based World Medical Relief Inc. (WMRI), Representative Carmelo Lazatin (1st district, Pampanga) and Magalang Mayor Romy Pecson at the Clark Freeport to finalize plans for the opening of the hospital’s new building next week.
Pineda thanked Samson, a native of Barangay San Pedro II in Magalang, for the WMRI’s donation of beds and other hospital equipment.
Pineda said Department of Health also gave P5 million for the birthing station at the DALMH, which sits on a one-hectare area donated by Don Andres Luciano, grandfather of Clark International Airport Corp. president and CEO Victor Jose Luciano. (Herbert P. Mapiles)
